The Neighbourhood Inspector has overall responsibility for the entire neighbourhood policing team of Sergeants, Police Constables, PCSOs and police staff. They are responsible for delivering on neighbourhood policing strategies, directing the deployment of the team and developing relationships with partners and key stakeholders to enable the neighbourhood policing team to work effectively.
The Neighbourhood Sergeant provides frontline management to support and co-ordinate the activity of the neighbourhood policing team. They work with key partners and stakeholders to problem solve issues and develop innovative ways to identify and safeguard vulnerable people within the community.
Police Constables work alongside the community and partner agencies to tackle crime and issues identified by the local community. They work together with PCSOs to be a visible presence in the local area and build trust and confidence by developing a detailed understanding of the community.

Burglary remains a significant concern for communities across South Buckinghamshire, including Burnham, the Farnhams and Taplow. As we enter the autumn and winter months, when burglary offences traditionally increase due to longer hours of darkness, the neighbourhood policing team will continue to focus on prevention, disruption of offenders and providing crime prevention advice to residents.
Issued 01 November 2026
The neighbourhood team have completed cocooning in areas around Fern Drive, Lent Rise Road and surrounding areas. Cocooning is the process in which residents in areas that have recently been impacted by burglary are provided with crime prevention resources, to prevent the area becoming repeatedly targeted by burglary. In addition to leaflet drops and home visits, we have been using our communication and social media channels to highlight and bring awareness to crime prevention advice to alert as many people in our community as possible.
Nightly high visibility patrols focused on detecting and deterring burglary continued to be carried out as part of operation Grotto - our annual winter burglary campaign to combat the seasonal rise in this offending.
